What is LESS file in CSS?

Less (Leaner Style Sheets; sometimes stylized as LESS) is a dynamic preprocessor style sheet language that can be compiled into Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) and run on the client side or server side.

How do you make a CSS file LESS?

Step 1: Go to your project folder, create a subfolder named CSS and then create a file named styles. less inside it.


Referring to LESS documentation (http://lesscss.org/#client-side-usage):

Link your .less stylesheets with the rel set to “stylesheet/less”:

<link rel="stylesheet/less" type="text/css" href="styles.less" />

Then download less.js from the top of the page, and include it in the <head> element of your page, like so:

<script src="less.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Make sure you include your stylesheets before the script.

This method will cause the less-file act as a regular css-file so no additional files are needed.

This is not a good practice for production environments though. You should compile your less-file to css-file and include it in your <head>-section as is without any less- or js-files.


@import "styles.less";

OR

@import "styles";

its from ur CSS file.. you just need to include it like

<link rel="stylesheet/less" type="text/css" href="styles.less" />

This one helped me ...

<script src="less.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

I was tryin to use only this

<link rel="stylesheet/less" type="text/css" href="styles.less" />
